Map Data Workflow

From map data to a working drawing

Site plans, utility routes and parcel boundaries often start out as REC and end up in DGN. reaConverter turns the layers into drawing entities in batch, so a full project folder moves across in one run.

  • Convert every layer in a folder to DGN with the same settings
  • Go the other way too, from DWG to Shapefile, when the GIS team needs the drawings back
  • Render the same data to PDF for a quick review copy
  • Pick up new data automatically with Watch Folders, or script the job from the command line

Everything runs on your PC, which matters for cadastral, utility and client data that should not pass through an upload form.
